Price’s Miners have lost six straight games to UH and Rice in Houston since 2006.

The last time UTEP won in Houston was 38-31 over the Owls on Oct. 29, 2005 in Price’s first season.

“I’m kind of disgusted with myself right now,” Price said after the Miners allowed 671 yards total offense to the Owls. “Coming here six years and not having a victory in Houston against either Houston or Rice. Six years in a row? Can’t get a win? Disgusting. Disgusting to me.”
